The Jewish School of the Arts provides for the physical, intellectual and emotional growth of children through activities that are child-directed and teacher guided. At the school and camp, children gain readiness skills for future learning through dramatic play, visual aids, manipulatives and more. “We are a creative, modern school always looking to discover new ways to fulfill our mission.” said Brocha Benhiyoun, who was instrumental in rallying the school community to vote. “With the newly awarded Imagination Playground we feel our mission will be greatly enhanced. We wait in great anticipation and excitement to include this highly regarded play tool into our cutting edge school as we expand further in our community.”
